Sad news . . . . Last evening, my male parakeet entered the nestbox and killed the two babies that had hatched as well as destroyed the rest of the clutch. What happened? This was his first husbandry, so does this mean that he now learned that he can do that and will do the same for all subsequent clutches? Should he be removed from the breeding cage? Should I try again w/ him? The hen is a very experienced mother, so what if I let her brood and raise the young alone?

Lots of questions, I know, but you guys are the place to go for the answers. Thank you!
